The Canadian Samsonite had its own way of packaging. Strange there used only
one plastic bag and most parts were just loose inside the box.

Comments from Submitter:
The manual shows only 30 and 16 items used, that +1 is already as extra included.

and you are right. Thank you for finding this mistakes in the inventory. These
errors are there since 2005 (sic!)
(Just wonder there are so many SW UCS collectors and nobody notice it earlier
)
Black 4592c03 occur in instruction:
p.40 -1x
p.46 -1x
p.48 -1x
p.54 -1x
p.123 -1x
p.146 -1x
p.156 -2x
p.158 -2x
p.166 -4x
p.175 -2x
p.180 -2x
p.183 -4x
p.184 -8x
So 30 there are
Light gray 4592c03 occur in instruction only on page 200 (8x) and 201 (8x), so
16 there are.
I think I know why we have these numbers in this inventory. When you carefully
study inv change log for this set https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemType=S&itemNo=10030-1&viewDate=Y&viewStatus=1
it can be notice that extras of these two parts were added on Sep 9, 2005 (also
in the same change request were changed quantities of 3 other extras, I will
return to them). But after that no other changes for those levers so it seems
that initally this set was inventoried with extras of them in regular section
but after addition them to extras quantities of those levers were never reduced.
Why I think so it is the case. Look what happened with magnets in the same time.
Changed to 32 then were added two extras and quantity reduced to 30 and again
extras changed to four and quantity in regular reduced to 28. So here when quantity
of magnets in extra section was changing also quantity in regular was adjusted.
But it was never done for levers and instruction confirms that.
Now let's look at other two changed extras quantities in the same date:
black
extras changed from 1 to 2
and blue
extras changed from 1 to 2
Here also quantities of them weren't adjusted after change of extras quantities.
So could there also be a mistake? the same as in levers?
Why there could be? Let's check parts count for this set. On box there are
clearly 3104 parts stated, it is best visible in this review https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-5Hc-T9xXg
(I attached also screeshot). We have now 3108 parts in this inventory. After
this change when we reduced quantities of those of levers we will have 3106 parts
so we are still 2 too many. So there could be still similar mistake in these
pins I think  Also it is interesting that this set don't have this one
extra (very common extra part as an extra):
(but as I check not all sets from 2002 have it as an extra).
So anybody volunteer to check whole instruction of this set to count this
(154 to count)
and this part
(219 to count)
and maybe also this one
just to be sure
(I will try to do it but in no predictably future, when I find finally some free
time when nothing to do )
Last thing inventory of this set was confirmed from sealed set content btw but
there are still mistakes at it occured

most likely have color variation within them. Also, all of these capes come from
sets that were far after the famous color change of 2004, so I don't see
any of them being old brown capes. I think it is merely another example of poor

Ok, I'll take your word for it and consider them all RB to sell in the 7665
set.
BTW - I meant to write "the leftmost is the darkest" in my previous message.

Nope. You may not believe this, but I have never even tasted alcohol and have
never experimented with drugs. I don't use caffeine. I smoke cigarettes
and that's it.
I don't think there's a thing wrong with drug or alcohol use, but I have
always preferred to be in control of my own mind. I do, however, think that life
is something of an absurdity and a joke and I intend to laugh at it whilst I
am able in whatever ways I find.

Note that the later version of the set included 13 sealed bags instead of the
12 bags from the first version. An attached photo from an auction site shows
the contents of the later set, although the green large bricks are not visible
in the photo.
Also, the date printed on the activity/instructions cards is 1994, but the date
printed on the cover/inventory card is 1993. The actual date of re-release is

I wanted to include some additional information about this set for future reference
and an inventory change is the best way to do that.
First, I personally and carefully checked every single brick in this set from
sealed contents for which I opened every bag and handled the parts (photos of
my set attached). Mine was the early version of the set released in 1991 and
there were 12 bags in the set. All of the bricks included cross supports except
a single 2 x 3 brick in yellow (the other 11 of the same brick had cross supports).
This is a late appearance for this brick (two years late according to BrickLink's
current timeline) and I was surprised to find it, but there it was.
As for inside supports, those little ridges inside the brick which are only currently
distinguished for one brick (the Brick 2 x 2 without Inside Supports in case
the title or part number changes in the future):
All bricks in the set, including those with designs, had these ridges with the
exceptions listed below. I mention this because it will be useful data if we
decide to distinguish these parts in the future (I compared the parts listed
below (except the last two, for which I had no comparison parts) to recent examples
and all of the newer bricks I checked had inside supports).
The aforementioned 2 x 3 brick in yellow without cross supports.
All 2 x 6 bricks in the set.
All 2 x 8 bricks in the set.
All 2 x 10 bricks in the set.
All 4 x 12 bricks in the set.
All 8 x 16 bricks in the set.
The empty window frames had hollow studs as I indicated in the inventory. The
bricks with eyes had no white included as indicated in the inventory.
Finally, and I really don't think we'd ever distinguish this difference,
exactly half of the doors and windows were attached to the left and half to the
right. So two doors attached facing left and four windows attached facing left
and the same number of each facing right. TLG did not distinguish this difference
and I see no need for us to. The door and window directions are easily reversible.
The complete contents of the set are the storage case with no lid, 12 bags of
parts and four green large bricks loose, the cover/inventory cardboard with nothing
printed on the other side, four double-sided activity/instructions cards, and
the informational sheet of paper. All of these are included in an outer original
box with the set number printed thereupon. I have the activity cards from the
1994 version and verified that each of these was different than the 1991 version
in spite of having the same 6-digit identification number printed on each card
for both versions.
I'm certain this last bit has no relevance whatsoever to the discussion,
but I mention it for the sake of completeness: my second cousin's first name
is Frank.
